tendered her resignation to the school
board. Owing to the illness of her

give up teaching for a time. The
board, while regretting the loSs of
such an excellent teacher, felt that un-
der the 'circumstances Ito 'other eourse
was open than to accept the resigna-

Substitutes For Hard Coal.
All over the contiuent people are
discussiag possible substitutes for
hard coal. Bard wood roul soft coal.'
corn -cobs and peach -stones are favored
the localities where they are res.
sectively plentiful. The trouble with
nearly all the substitutes is that in
many places they are as scarce' as
anthracite. The Utica Observer has
discovered one siffistitute, however,
that is not so subject to geographical
limitations. Our esteemed ccnitearpor-
ary .says :
• .
" Here is .the 'manner in which one
bouse-wife has to a certain degree ov-
ercome the pressing question of fuel r
. "She took four comma brivics and
, placed them in a pail. Over the bricka
she poured a gallon/of kerosene oil
and let them ..staild until the bricks
had absorbed all of the oil they would
take up. Then she took out two of
Ute briess and placed them in the:
kitchen. range and set fire to them.
they burned. fully two hours and the
fire that they made. was one by which
it was possible.. to ao any.. kind of
'cooking or other work requiring con-
siderable heat. The lady. says in this
way it will be possible in her home
.to get along with the .eooking, wash-
ing and ironing without resort to gaft.
There was no impleasant odour or. any
trouble whatever, for the oil jest
blazed. away like 2. stove fall of .goeld.
wood." . • - •
, A similar experiment is reported by'
a 'correspondent of the New York Sun.
He writes ;
I "I procured some kerosene oil and
is
teeing a. porous hollow brick 8x34x2X
lathes) soaked it .M the oil for a few
1 seconds, then ignited it.
"The brick burned for fully forty
minutes, giving out a bright flame and
emitting great heat. One such brick:
should. be sufficient to eoolc a Meal
and heat the boiler, ti,t a cost 4 of less
than one cent.
" These bricks being Are proof can
be used over and over again by simply
resoaking.''
It is just as well to remember,
though, that experiments with coal oil
and kitchen staves can soreely be
conducted with too much caution. One
of the briefest poems in the English
language epitomizes the result of too
many experonents with this dangerous
combination. It reads as follows. s

We print below two articles from
. The Chicago Live Stook World to let
the farmers of Ontario know the out-
look in the Western States. We are'
aware that in the past two or three
years many farmers in this province
are engaged itt the rearing and feeding
of the best hogs for home consemp-
/son arid export, and we are pleased
to know that their foresight and toil •
have brought to them financial bene-
fits. Still; as " Farther" tersely
points out -why the great difference
in- prices here and in the 'United States
• Hog Prices and Prospects -Here we
are at the. openhig of the regular win-
ter packing season and two serious,
Conditions are confronting the trade -
While prices for hogs are far above
the average the receipts at market for
the first period daring "the year are
beginningto show a material falling
.off tampered. with the corresponding
period of last year. ". Wait it little .
while' and we shall have plenty of
hogs," is the song the packers . who
take it bearish view are singing. A
year ago .fermers began to sacrifice
their little pigs because of the scarc-
ity and the high price of torn. During
the winter there was a great slaughter
of young stock, such as farmers end
feeders, especially in Iowa and Mis-
souri, are glad .to get , at what in or-
dinary. years . would look like extrava-4
gent figures. At the same time the
market at the present time is being
supplied with more hogs of the " fat
back" class than it needs. This neg-
lect of eXtta heavy hogs might seem
to indieate a lerge surplus of such
stock iir the country, but that is aot
the ,ease. the relatively strong de-
mand ,for light and niediutii weights
is 'due to the scarcity of such stock
, being ina.rketed and to the probability
that farmers will prefer to hold hack
the light and medium weights as a
means of disposing of the big crop of
' feetlitif core. Itidications now point
to 0. • season . wben bacon hogs and,
medium' weight butcher grades will
command a still 'greater premium over
ripe heavy hogs. The, supply of young
hogs is surely short•arid feeders will
naturally wain to put as intich weight
On as they can, but the Wise heads
will recognize the requirements of the
trade and market their hogs before
they get too heavy, If O. man can get
as. Zilch for a 250 pound hog As lie
can for . one a good deal .heavier he
might better' store the surpids• corn hi
a crib than it hog skins, -Orem Chi-•
eago Live Stock World, .
• Conditions of -the Hog Trade ---In
aortie. particulars -the • hog and provia-
ion eituation is much the Sameas iii
thefall of 1892. That year there was
a fairly large Corn crop but cholera.
was rampant in nearly the whole of
the hog belt and supplies for the win-
ter market were redueed t,o, a low
ebb -Lin fact almost : to a famine
point. That fall the packera made a
light to cipen the winter packifig sea-
son on it basis of about $5., per cwt.
of hogs ; they sold January product
on this basis, but whet they came to
make the product they' had to pay a-
round $7 lot the live hogs arid pork
went up to $20 a, barrel. This yeir
there is a big corn crop being harvest-
ed but the hog crop is short for reap,.
ous that need not be retounted here.
The . whiter season ltas opeucd with
packing grades .of hogs selling around
the $7 point and it is evident that
there will not be any large increase
tn the volume of hogs pat on market
in the near future. It is not known
how the supply of hogs iti the Monis
of the small farmers iii the Eastern
States stands, but for the pres nt, at
best, they scent to have enough to
supplyme
current demands of the astern
trade. lii the great corn and hog belt,
however, titere is hardly n question
that the immediate available supply
is more than as per tent. short,-
